Series of novel Schiff's base derivatives have been synthesized by combining 2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl 4-formylbenzoate 5, 6 with aromatic/heterocyclic amine 7a-r, 8, 9a-r in ethanol. All compounds were evaluated for antibacterial assay and inhibition against E. coli FabH. Among the compounds studied, most of the compounds showed effective antibacterial and potential inhibitory activity against E. coli FabH. Compound 10q showed most potent inhibitory activity (IC50 = 2.6883 μM) by binding tightly to the active site of the E. coli FabH receptor with minimum binding energy (ΔGb = -55.3117 kcal mol-1), in which molecular docking study indicated the binding mode was stabilized by one hydrogen bond and five π-π interactions.

, p. 4799 - 4813 (2021/09/30)
Herein, we report a synergistic silica coated magnetic Fe3O4 catalyst functionalized with nitrogen rich organic moieties and immobilized with cobalt metal ion (FNP-5) for selective oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones using tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant. The catalyst was rigorously characterized via several techniques which delineate its core-shell structure, magnetic behavior, phase and crystal structure. The Co(III) acts as the active catalytic center for selective oxidation reaction. The control reactions revealed radical mechanistic pathway assisted by the synergism induced by the inorganic-organic hybrid nature of FNP-5. The other features of current protocol involve neat reaction conditions, high TOF values, scalability of product and low E-factor value (1.92). Moreover, FNP-5 could be effortlessly separated via an external magnet, displays recyclability over eight catalytic cycles and exhibits structural integrity even after rigorous use. Overall, these results manifest the understanding of synergistic architectures as sustainable surrogates for selective oxidation reactions.

The enzyme galactose oxidase (GOase) is a copper radical oxidase that catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of primary alcohols to the aldehydes and has been utilized to that end in large-scale pharmaceutical processes. To maintain its catalytic activity and ensure high substrate conversion, GOase needs to be continuously (re)activated by 1e- oxidation of the constantly formed out-of-cycle species (GOasesemi) to the catalytically active state (GOaseox). In this work, we report an electrochemical activation method for GOase that replaces the previously used expensive horseradish peroxidase activator in a GOase-catalyzed oxidation reaction. First, the formation of GOaseox of a specifically engineered variant via nonenzymatic oxidation of GOasesemi was studied by UV-vis spectroscopy. Second, electrochemical oxidation of GOase by mediators was studied using cyclic voltammetry. The electron-transfer rates between GOase and various mediators at different pH values were determined, showing a dependence on both the redox potential of the mediator and the pH. This observation suggests that the oxidation of GOase by mediators at pH 7-9 likely occurs via a concerted proton-coupled electron-transfer (PCET) mechanism under anaerobic conditions. Finally, this electrochemical GOase activation method was successfully applied to the development of a bioelectrocatalytic GOase-mediated aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohol derivatives, cinnamyl alcohol, and aliphatic polyols, including the desymmetrizing oxidation of 2-ethynylglycerol, a key step in the biocatalytic cascade used to prepare the promising HIV therapeutic islatravir.

Herein, catalytic application of a metal-free sulfonic acid functionalized reduced graphene oxide (SA-rGO) material is reported for the synthesis of both carboxylic acids and their bioisosteres, 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles. SA-rGO as a catalytic material incorporates the intriguing properties of graphene oxide material with additional benefits of highly acidic sites due to sulfonic acid groups. The oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids could be efficiently achieved using H2O2as a green oxidant with high TOF values (9.06-9.89 h?1). The 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles could also be effectively synthesized with high TOF values (12.08-16.96 h?1). The synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles was corroborated by single crystal X-ray analysis and computational calculations of the proposed reaction mechanism which correlated well with experimental findings. Both of the reactions could be performed efficiently at gram scale (10 g) using the SA-rGO catalyst. SA-rGO displays eminent reusability up to eight runs without significant decrease in its productivity. Thus, these features make SA-rGO riveting from an industrial perspective.

The disproportionation of alcohols without an additional reductant and oxidant to simultaneously form alkanes and aldehydes/ketones represents an atom-economical transformation. However, only limited methodologies have been reported, and they suffer from a narrow substrate scope or harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we report that alcohol disproportionation can proceed with high efficiency catalyzed by iodide under acidic conditions. This method exhibits high functional group tolerance including aryl alcohol derivatives with both electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups, furan ring alcohol derivatives, allyl alcohol derivatives, and dihydric alcohols. Under the optimized reaction conditions, a 49% yield of 5-methyl furfural and a 49% yield of 2,5-diformylfuran were obtained simultaneously from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. An initial mechanistic study suggested that the hydrogen transfer during this redox disproportionation occurred through the inter-transformation of HI and I2. Radical intermediates were involved during this reaction.

A magnetically recyclable palladium-catalyzed formylation of aryl iodides under CO gas-free conditions has been developed by using a bidentate phosphine ligand-modified magnetic nanoparticles-anchored- palladium(II) complex [2P-Fe 3O 4@SiO 2-Pd(OAc) 2] as catalyst, yielding a wide variety of aromatic aldehydes in moderate to excellent yields. Here, formic acid was employed as both the CO source and the hydrogen donor with iodine and PPh 3as the activators. This immobilized palladium catalyst can be obtained via a simple preparative procedure and can be facilely recovered simply by using an external magnetic field, and reused at least 9 times without any apparent loss of catalytic activity.

The MOF Co-BTC (BTC = benzenetricarboxylate) has been synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and characterized by means of N2 physical adsorption, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The material has multiple crevices, as opposed to a pore structure, and shows high thermal stability, with Co in the divalent state. It has been used in conjunction with N,N-dihydroxypyromellitimide to catalyze the oxidation of p-xylene to terephthalic acid, the reaction conditions for which have been investigated and optimized. At 150 °C, with acetonitrile as solvent instead of acetic acid and in the absence of corrosive bromine, the conversion of p-xylene reached 100 % and the selectivity for terephthalic acid exceeded 97 %. Under the optimized conditions, Co-BTC exhibits stronger catalytic activity than cobalt(II) acetate, and maintains excellent stability during the reaction. The reaction mechanism has been deduced, and the roles of N,N-dihydroxypyromellitimide and Co-BTC as synergistic catalysts in the reaction have been clarified.

Herein we disclosed the use of a remote ‘imidazole’-based precatalyst [(para-cymene)RuII(L)Cl]+, C-1 where L=2-(4-substituted-phenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline) for the selective oxidation of a variety of alkyl arenes/heteroarenes and alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes or ketones in presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). The remote ‘imidazole’ moiety present in the complex facilitates the activation of oxidant and subsequent generation of active species via the release of para-cymene from C-1, which in-turn was less effective without the ‘imidazole’ moiety. The mechanistic features of C-1 promoted oxidation of alkyl arenes were also assessed from spectroscopic, kinetic, and few control experiments. The substrate scope for C-1 promoted oxidation reaction was assessed based on the selective oxidation of 27-different alkyl arenes/heteroarenes and 25 different alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes/ketones in moderate to good yields.
